      on serious note, think it was his height and his game and how isolated he could be in games. he gets the ball and lays it off and only comes alive in the box with sharp movement, so basically you’re building up the play with 10 men. with the lack of top striker right now he would have made his way to top clubs right now. still had a very respectable career

    What a lovely bloke. Dedicated to the game and trying to emulate the best strikers, watching and learning. I don't get the impression there's anyone with that attitude like him at United today. There's something fundamentally wrong with young professionals today. His attitude, determination to succeed and humility. So in contrast to the lazy, self-entitled prima-donnas filling the dressing room at Old Trafford. I've loved United all my long life. The mard-arsed attitude of our players today and the vampire owners makes me want to walk away from my beloved club. Even in the dark pre-Fergie days, I never once felt like this.

      Oh my god. Enough. Being a manager is a crapshoot. It all depends on the timing, shrewd recruitment by scouts, and state of the club in that moment in time. There are thousands of former players than can do the job. It's not rocket science.

    Thank you for this one, Rio.
    As a Spurs fan, absolutely respected JD. A true PREDATOR!
    Deadly striker, and always magnetic and engaging in person.
    That 2010 WC: Capello wasn't playing him much, the team needed a spark badly, playing really poorly under Capello, then JD came on against Slovenia and banged a volley in hard to get the win and his World Cup goal to go into the next round. Loved that for him.
    That, and the hattrick against Bulgaria right after the WC, showed Capello was silly to not give him more time on the pitch.
    At Spurs: One of the most craziest things about his career is how JD (bravely, and to his own detriment cos he was getting playing more with Ade in the reserves) spoke up for Adebayo when AVB was isolating Ade from the team for wearing a hat.
    AVB (petty little man) then benched JD and it led to our boy ultimately deciding to leave for Toronto FC. Ridiculous.
    I wish it had been exposed a bit more in this interview. He was back in the Prem in a year, banging in more goals...
    All the best to the man JD-trouble.

    Jermaine Defoe one of the best PL and world strikers in the world. Also he needs to come more often, his knowledge is amazing and he knows how to keep the discussion going on in depth. I just wish you would have asked about that free kick when he played in the usa :D one of the funniest moments in footballs history .

    @MrVimto10 Před 2 lety +2

    Wow that was a great episode. Genuine insight from a top class striker who was a master of his trade. Fascinating to hear about his mentality from a young age that stayed with him. I just wish Jermain got a year or two to add to his tally at United. He would’ve been a joke at Old Trafford.

      @@CheekySport will definitely check it out! Keep up the good work! A great perspective would be players that should have had better careers but for injury like Ledley King, Wilshere or Woodgate? An interesting one also would be players that know they didn't reach their levels. They had great careers but know they could have gone on to superior levels. Anderson, Van de Vaart, Gio dos santos, Taarabt spring to mind?

  • @nicomus1c
    @nicomus1c Před 2 lety +1

    Defoe is an absolute legend, as a spurs fan I've grown up watching him play for us and when it comes to natural finishers there weren't many better in world football. I could see him having an elite future as a technical coach who helps attackers with finishing and movement in the box. I could see him working at some of the best clubs in the world as part of a coaching team, just thinking about what he could get out of some of the current young number 9s is scary. I even feel like players like Haaland and Mbappe could learn a lot and improve under guidance and coaching from Defoe.
